RSS as a game engine.

OK, so yesterday I was not very enthusiastic about games in e-Learning, and today I'm wondering if this piece from IdiotDev might be the germ of a better idea. If a game is a good way to involve people, how would you involve them in a collaborative, cooperative way to construct knowledge rather than just do rote memorization? Why not RSS?

Google makes the Web pay.

Article by Ben Hammersley in the Manchester Guardian on Google's new micropayment arrangement. (Also see this CNET article on AdSense.) For a small independent producer of e-Learning, this could provide additional revenue. See the note yesterday about including videos as attachments to weblog articles -- and if videos, why not Flash or DHTML as attachments? There are a lot of possibilities opening up here, it's just like the alphabet -- you just have to arrange the right bits in the right order.
